About this map

Franklin serves as the hub of this 1940s landscape, where the New York New Haven and Hartford RR lines intersect near the historic Dean Academy campus. The surrounding terrain is a complex of wetlands and low hills, including Woodward Swamp and the prominent Joe's Rock to the south. Small industrial and residential clusters like Unionville, Wadsworth, and Sheldonville are connected by a developing road network, while the southern portion of the sheet crosses the state line into Rhode Island, reaching the northern edges of Woonsocket.
